U.S. News and World Report “Best Undergraduate” psychology program
If there was ever a time the world needed resilient and compassionate psychologists and professionals, it’s today.
You can make a difference in the world. In the face of suffering and brokenness, you can walk side-by-side with others toward health and healing. Our psychology program equips you to combine empathy with knowledge and teaches you to understand the nuances of human behavior.
The end result? A deeper appreciation of God’s promise of redemption and the opportunity to point others toward truth and freedom in their own lives.
Learn Through Mentorship and Collaboration
You won’t take this journey alone. You’ll be mentored by faculty members that include researchers and trained clinicians in private practice. By graduation, you’ll be prepared for a career in any field that includes significant human engagement – social services, business administration, education – or for graduate school.
As a bonus, you’ll benefit from the presence of our Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) program, one of only a handful of Christian psychology degree programs in the nation accredited by the American Psychological Association. This gives you access to a larger group of faculty members, more library resources, and opportunities to conduct research with PsyD faculty and graduate students.
Interprofessional Education
The Interprofessional education program happens twice a year—once each semester—giving you the chance to gain valuable, hands-on experience. By participating, you’ll see how different professional training and ethics influence client care, preparing you to collaborate with a variety of professionals in the health system. You’ll build confidence in sharing your perspectives and assessments while learning from other disciplines, setting you up for success in real-world professional environments.

Psychology Major’s Bold Post About Depression Touches Millions
Bekah Miles sat in her chair, staring. Could she do it? Would she do it? No. Yes. She was so tired of hiding, tired of pretending, tired of her illness. But since that wasn’t going to change anytime soon, maybe it was time to change her approach. To take her life back, if she could. Ten minutes of debate. Then she did what millions do every minute – she clicked the “post” button.
